Why is gasoline standardized at 15.5 °C for this conversion?

Standardizing gasoline at 15.5 °C accounts for temperature-dependent density variations, allowing consistent mass-based measurements used in the petroleum industry for inventory and reporting.

Can this converter be used for fluids other than gasoline?

No, this conversion is specific to gasoline with a density referenced at 15.5 °C and is not suitable for other fluids without adjusted density data.

What does 1 barrel (US)/hour represent in volume?

It equals the volumetric flow rate of one U.S. oil barrel per hour, where one barrel corresponds to 42 U.S. gallons or approximately 158.987 liters.
